2 hours.

Tonight Asher has been up every 2 hours, on the dot. 1030? Saw it. 1230? Saw it. 230? Saw it? 430? Still up at 5:20.

It's amazing a woman can function on naps, let's face it that's what it's called when you sleep an hour or two.

I know (and hope) that these days will come to an end (eventually). So for now I'll try to enjoy them.

Blessed.

Asher 2 months!


Today you are TWO months old.. How is that possible? I took you to the doctor today and you weigh FIFTEEN pounds (and 13 ounces). You're also 25.5 inches long! You are living up to the nicknames hoss and baby giant!!



You got your vaccinations today and you did not like them. Your legs were tender and you went to bed 2 hours early.. Hopefully you will feel better tomorrow!

You're still nursing, every 2-3 hours during the day and about every 2 at night. Brother you've got to change your nighttime sleep habits before I go back to work full time!! 



This past month you slept over 5 hours one night, why don't you try to do that again??? We were able to transition you to sleep in your rock and play, so I am enjoying sleeping in my bed again :)

You're still wearing size 2 diapers (barely). Son they only sell up to size 6 in the store so you're gonna have to slow down on changing sizes! You're wearing 3-6 month clothing.


Sister really makes you smile. You could just watch her all day. She's become pretty fond of you as well. Most of the time... Last night you got your first tub bath (2nd child I've been sponge bathing you!!) and she decided you needed a cup of water dumped in your face! You didn't even fuss.. 


Asher Boone you completed our family and we couldn't love you more!

Blessed.

2014: Year in Review

What a wonderful year we had in 2014.. I'll just hit the highlights since I don't have much time lol



January
This month began a huge change for our household. Jarrod quit his job to become a full time student and began the PTA program. It was an adjustment going to one income but we've managed!



March
While on vacation with my inlaws I discovered we were expecting our second child!



April
My first OB appointment was this month. An ultrasound revealed a single baby with a heartbeat of 144!



June
Our 20 week anatomy scan confirmed our baby was growing perfect! We enjoyed a vacation to Charlotte and the mountains!



August
I graduated with my BSN this month. Jarrod and I celebrated 8 years of marriage. We took one last vacation as a family of 3!



September
Birthday celebrations for our two year old started out this month!! We also transformed our extra bedroom into her new big girl room!



November
The highlight of the year, we welcomed Asher Boone into our family! We celebrated holidays as a family of four!



December
I turned 29 :(.. We celebrated Christmas and New Years at home. I love being on maternity leave during the holidays!

2015 had some big shoes to fill! What a blessed year we had!

Blessed.
